Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandAssertive in hue and aromas, this punchy rose is 100 percent merlot from Hawke's Bay. Cherry, watermelon and strawberry are up front and primary, the acidity is moderate and the finish is tart and candied. A simple, easy rose for summer refreshing. Not shy, pour this with salmon burgers or crusted tuna tataki.Tasted: 15 April 2016Tasted by: Prices:
Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandPansy! is prettier in pink today than it was in red a decade ago. It still attacks the palate with some weight and sweetness and a dash of dried herbs. The grapes are malbec and merlot and the finish is just off-dry and touch leafy. Simple but quaffable. Best with grilled pork.Tasted: 16 June 2015Tasted by: Prices:
